I'm seeing guys run two different tire setups on this wheel on the forum:
20x8.5 +35 Front
20x9.5 +40 Rear
option 1: FRONT:245/35/20 and REAR:275/30/20
option 2: FRONT:235/35/20 and REAR: 255/35/20
Whats the difference? Which is going to have a beefier sidewall? Seems like these tire calculators don't take into account the width of the rim and the possible stretch.
Seems like 235/35 front, 275/30 is going to be the closest to spec...but i haven't seen anyone with that combo.
